The cost of Love, when lost to Time...


 

What Price to you, will come to mind, as suitable for the love of your life?

Dollars, Diamonds, stocks dancing dows, gold studded earrings or the perfect wedding crowd?

Painful to leave but its torture to be left.

An abundance of sorrows marked by far to few attempts.

The cycle renews so place your bets!

The soul's eternal gamble....Logic & reason are dead.

Yet still we play this game of chess,

cultivating memories to fill our head.

No words of wisdom could ever beget, 

Lack of implementation is knowledge that is dead,

Tis better to have loved so lose with pride,

Reflections of life are your minds goodbye.

As you recall both good and dark times,

I hope your not alone as you close your eyes.

In those brief moments to live was a lie

no tangible treasures along for this ride.

in truth we know for all the bell will chime,

True love's only acceptable payment is your

Priceless currency of

TIME.

To see the world in a grain of sand or heaven in a wild flower, to hold infinity in the palm of your hand or eternity in an hour -William Blake.
